URBANTONIX is a barrier-first skincare brand built on one conviction: a strong barrier is the foundation of healthy skin. We launched with one hero product - the Cleansing Balm - designed to be the first step to strengthen your skin barrier and the last cleanser you'll ever need.

What most cleansers aren't telling you

PEGs, fragrances, essential oils and foaming agents are in just about every cleanser on the market - they can strip, irritate and damage your barrier.

A damaged barrier can leave skin feeling tight, dry, flaky, irritated, acne prone and can accelerate aging.

URBANTONIX set a new standard in cleansing - a deeply purifying cleanser, clinically proven to strengthen your barrier with every cleanse.

FAQ

Is this a rinse-off cleanser?

No; unlike most cleansing balms that are rinse-offs, our cleanser contains no foaming agents (which are common barrier disruptors). To remove, simply use a wet cotton pad or wash cloth to wipe off impurities.

Do I need to double cleanse with this balm?

No need to double cleanse, but on nights when your skin is feeling very congested, repeat the cleansing balm application twice to deeply purge impurities - your skin will feel clean and clear.

What are PEGs and why do you avoid them?

PEGs are derived from petroleum and used as solvents, thickeners and penetration enhancers in formulas. We avoid them since PEGs can irritate and damage the skin barrier. Check your cleanser, we're almost certain it will contain PEGs (or fragrance, which are also barrier disruptors).

Can I use the balm as a face mask or moisturizer?

Absolutely. Many of our customers have used the balm as an intense hydrating face mask, lip balm, mixed with their serums or moisturizer to boost hydration and applied as a cosmetic highlighter.

“It melts everything away including waterproof mascara, and it doesn’t irritate my eyes or make my vision blurry. The organic cotton pad removes all the makeup effortlessly. No dryness, no irritation – just clean and soft skin. I’m honestly shocked. NEVER in my entire life I used just one product to remove such heavy makeup. I really recommend it.”

“Overall I really like this! It has a lovely, emollient quality that takes off my makeup effortlessly, and feels great on the skin. It doesn’t feel greasy, and leaves my skin feeling moisturized instead of filmy like some other cleansing balms I’ve tried. It also doesn’t make my contacts foggy which is a plus.”

“Wow, I LOVE the cleansing balm. Felt amazing and took off so much residue even when not wearing makeup! I used a toner afterwards but it was the first time no residue remained after cleansing. Like the pump dispenser! Left my skin feeling soft and clean with it. I love the idea of using it to clean when I have makeup and for the health of my eyelashes alone. I love the formula. The texture was perfect. Totally sold!”
